ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- The Buffalo Bills and coach Rex Ryan have some of their swagger back.One day after a win over the Arizona Cardinals, Ryan had a little fun as the Bills look ahead to the New England Patriots.Ryan began his news conference by imitating Patriots coach Bill Belichick, speaking in a monotone voice and saying that he would release the injury report later in the week.It was all in stark contrast to where Ryan and the Bills were one week ago when Ryan said he was not real comfortable after Buffalos 0-2 start.You have to focus on whats in front of you and at the same time still learn from the past and I think as a football team at least for one week we certainly did that, Ryan said.Ryan made it clear that his imitation was a form of flattery. Ryan and Belichick have gone head to head many times over the years -- Belichick has a record of 11-4 against the Bills coach -- and Ryan holds the Patriots coach in the highest regard.My admiration is really for Belichick more than anything cause as a coach thats the guy, hell go down probably as the best in the history of the game, Ryan said.I like poking fun at him and all that stuff, but theres no coach I respect more than him.The Bills (1-2) are in a much better mood following a dominant performance in their 33-18 win over the Cardinals (1-2).Ryan gave his players the day off after the victory, which featured turnaround performances on both sides of the ball.One week after being picked apart by former Bills quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick, the Bills forced five turnovers on Sunday -- which included four interceptions by Carson Palmer. Ryan and the Bills experimented with their defensive schemes in an effort to confuse Palmer, at times utilizing only one down lineman in Kyle Williams.That was something that I thought will give us a better opportunity to free somebody up, maybe change the count up a little bit and so it worked out pretty good, Ryan said.Our guys did a really good job mentally in preparing for that system ... If you thought the Fitz thing was bad, imagine what it would have looked like with Carson Palmer. So we werent going to live that nightmare again.On offense, the Bills were much more efficient under new offensive coordinator Anthony Lynn. Lynn replaced Greg Roman after Buffalos 0-2 start.Buffalo got its ground attack going, rushing for 208 yards compared to Arizonas 88 rushing yards.LeSean McCoy had his first 100-yard effort of the season with 110 yards and two touchdowns, and quarterback Tyrod Taylor had the second-highest rushing total of his career with 76 yards and a touchdown.It was good to see everyone come together and do whatever it takes on offense and defense to get a win, Taylor said after the game.Definitely a lot going on earlier in the week and we were able to move past that and come together and get a win.For Buffalo, its starting to come together just in time. If the Bills found a way to upset the Patriots (3-0), it would put them back in the thick of the division race.While a loss would give New England a huge edge early in the season.It would mean a lot to our football team, Ryan said.When you look at it, theyve been the standard of this league, not just in our conference, division or whatever, theyve been the standard of the league. You want to put yourself up against the best ... so yeah, it will mean a lot.

BALTIMORE -- The Tampa Bay Rays apparently have no intention of sleepwalking to the finish of a disappointing season.Although the Rays have been eliminated from playoff contention, they gave the Baltimore Orioles all they could handle Friday night before falling 5-4.Unlike Tampa Bay, Baltimore is in full-blown playoff mode. The Orioles are locked in a duel for the top spot in the AL East and competing for, at worst, one of the two wild cards.Tampa Bay went up 4-0 in the second inning and fell behind 5-4 in the eighth before nearly pulling even in the ninth against Baltimores perfect closer, Zach Britton.With two outs, Mike Mahtook singled off the second base bag. Alexei Ramirez followed with a liner to left, and Mahtook wheeled toward home. The relay from Michael Bourn to third baseman Manny Machado to catcher Matt Wieters easily beat him there.I knew it was going to be close, just based on the way Alexi hit the ball, Mahtook said. Left-field line, it wasnt like he had super long way to run for it. I was on the move, he made a good play, and they were able to get me.Evan Longoria hit his career-high 34th homer and Richie Shaffer also connected for the last-place Rays.Tampa Bay starter Chris Archer allowed three runs in 6 1/3 innings and struck out four to increase his AL-leading total to 221. The 18-game loser also avoided setting a franchise record for losses in a season.Cant say Im pleased with the way things went, the right-hander said. We lost the game.Archer was replaced after giving up successive one-out singles in the seventh. Danny Farquhar hit Adam Jones with a pitch to load the bases for Hyun Soo Kim, who hit a deep liner to center. Kevin Kiermaier leaped with his back to the 7-foot wall, grasped the ball and brought it back onto the field before it popped from his glove.Thats a grand slam with any other center fielder, Rays manager Kevin Cash said.Kim was limited to an RBI single, and Farquhar struck out Machado and Davis.But Baltimore would not be denied in the eighth against wild reliever Brad Boxberger (4-2).Two walks and a hit batter loadded the bases for J.ddddddddddddJ. Hardy, who tied it with an infield single. Bourn followed with a fly ball to left field, and pinch-runner Nolan Reimold easily scored as the throw was cut off.Brad Brach (9-3) worked the eighth and Britton escaped with his 44th save in 44 tries.If we get to where were looking for, Orioles starter Ubaldo Jimenez said, its one of those games that you can point out: What was the game that made the difference?Longoria homered off Ubaldo Jimenez with a man on in the first inning and Shaffer went deep in the second for a 4-0 lead.Pedro Alvarez hit his 21st home run in the second for Baltimore and Chris Davis delivered No. 38 in the fourth. Davis also struck out twice and has 201 for the year.Baltimores Mark Trumbo, the major league home run leader with 42, was sidelined with back spasms. It was only the second game hes missed this season.OUT IN LEFT FIELDBrad Miller usually plays shortstop or first base for the Rays. In an effort to gauge Millers versatility and add flexibility to the roster, Cash started him in left field.It didnt take long for Miller to get noticed: The second Baltimore batter of the game hit a pop to left that glanced off Millers glove for an error.The glove was borrowed from Farquhar.TRAINERS ROOMRays: 1B Nick Franklin, who strained his hamstring on Thursday, was held from the game. Cash listed him day-to-day.Orioles: RHP Darren ODay (rotator cuff strain) threw 26 pitches in a simulated game and could be activated Sunday or Monday. ... OF Joey Rickard (thumb) took a couple of practice swings, and it did not go well, manager Buck Showalter said.UP NEXTRays: Matt Adriese (7-7, 4.46 ERA) starts Saturday night, coming off his first career win against the Yankees on Sunday. The right-hander is 0-3 with a 9.24 ERA lifetime vs. Baltimore.Orioles: Chris Tillman (16-5, 3.68) makes his second start since being activated from the DL with right shoulder bursitis. He beat Detroit on Sunday. ' ' '
